Krone XDisc 710 Now Fits John Deere, New Holland Foragers
Krone's XDisc 710 direct-cut header can now be used by John Deere and New Holland forage harvesters, as well as the Krone Big X it was originally designed for.
Featuring unique seed coulters and an ingenious seed depth control system, the original Rapid was developed to work in all soil conditions and undertake several operations at once.
Nicknamed the universal or ‘Jeep’ of seed drills within the company, one of the major reasons for its success was the fact that it carried out seedbed preparation, levelling, drilling, and reconsolidation in one pass, while at the same time offering a reliable seeding result at a high working speed.
Behind the seed coulters, the large packer wheels have become a real trademark of the Rapid, creating good seed-to-soil contact even in tougher soils.
The offset of the packer wheels sees every second wheel moved 190 mm rearwards on a separate axle, to offer lower vibration, higher drilling precision and a reduction of up to 25% in draught requirement.
